The Education Team provides a comprehensive programme of training for governors, headteachers and school leaders, clerks, teaching staff and clergy. The team also provides regular briefings for Headteachers and Chairs of Governors to update them on current issues in education and to provide support.
The majority of these courses are included with unlimited places to schools with a 2022-23 Partnership Agreement. Briefings are free to all diocesan schools for both Headteachers and Chairs. Course fees for non-partnership schools and for courses not included in the partnership are indicated on the booking forms.
All of our training and briefing meetings are all held online via Zoom unless indicated.
